Lancet Series 2015: Tobacco-Free World
2015
This Lancet Series marks the 10-year anniversary of the World Health Organization's Framework Convention on Tobacco Control, and its publication coincides with the 16th World Conference on Tobacco or Health. Global support is needed to work towards a world essentially free from the sale of tobacco products. A tobacco-free world by 2040, where less than 5 percent of the world’s adult population use tobacco, is socially desirable, technically feasible, and could become politically practical.
Series papers and articles include:
- A Tobacco-Free World: A Call to Action to Phase out the Sale of Tobacco Products by 2040
- The Road to Effective Tobacco Control in China
- Exposing and Addressing Tobacco Industry Conduct in Low-Income and Middle-Income Countries
- The Consequences of Tobacco Tax on Household Health and Finances in Rich and Poor Smokers in China: An Extended Cost-Effectiveness Analysis
- Global Trends and Projections for Tobacco Use, 1990–2025: An Analysis of Smoking Indicators From the WHO Comprehensive Information Systems for Tobacco Control
